For students:

Want to help shape a more positive and connected campus culture?

Join Beyond Equality for a relaxed workshop where we’ll talk about consent, communication, boundaries, and healthy relationships and how they show up in everyday student life. It’s an open space to share ideas, ask questions, and build confidence in how we connect with each other.

19 November and 3 December 2025 - 1:30-3:30pm

Workshops will be held in the Bancroft building - Room 3.16 at Mile End. The workshop is delivered by facilitators from Beyond Equality who work with students to create safer, more inclusive community cultures.  Attendees will receive a £10 QMSU voucher.

How do I sign up?

If you would like information about booking a space, please email  reportandsupport@qmul.ac.uk Queen Mary’s Professional Development team have developed Queen Mary Bystander, available in a new, more accessible e-learning format which you can now find on QMplus.  This e-learning will introduce you to the ideas and tools, then let you try out a number of scenarios where you can test them out and see where they might lead. Building on the e-learning, there is also a workshop to explore some more complex scenarios and discuss them with small groups.  To book a place, first complete the e-learning and then search on the CPD booking system for course code PD230b (please note your place may be cancelled if you book before completing the e-learning).
